Unless its a built Z spec or better T5, I would not suggest going with one personally. With that said, the Quicktime RM-6037 should work for you.

How much does the bell housing go for ball park??

And that will work for my set up


cause the way im looking at this is if i get a built t56 and clutch and flywheel thats all going to cost me around $2300 dollar ??? Give or take

cost of the bell housing and a built t5 with clutch and fly wheel would be about half the price ??? Right ???

To buy a bellhousing and build a T5 that will live behind the power you intend on making, its going to be close to what a T56 will run. I cannot discuss pricing since I am not a sponsor on here.
